New project!

The last month and a half has been fairly busy.  I finished my round baby blanket, which is a great relief.  It's huge. I'll try to take pictures of it to post later in the week.  I finished a few other projects, too - I found out a few weeks ago that my sister-in-law is pregnant with baby #3!  I don't want to make too many things until we find out the sex of the baby, though.

A few days ago, I was checking out my mom's Etsy shop, Uniquely Yours Creations. (She has hand dyed fabric, quilt tops, note cards with original photography, and more!)  From there, I decided to check out one of my favorite shops, Sandy's Cape Cod Originals.  I posted the Bear Cocoon that I purchased from the shop awhile ago.  I settled on two new patterns: a Sock Monkey Toy Blanket, pictured to the right, and a Little Bear Toy Blanket.  She's got so many great patterns that I'll have to go back and buy a few more.  I wasn't sure if it would be too hard for me, but the directions are very easy to follow.  I'm not sure where this blanket is going yet, but I'm sure I'll find a home for it soon enough.  :-)
